Not quite, but it does help reduce the amount of cars...and, as policymakers slowly figure it out, hopefully will help reduce the amount of mandated parking for projects. I believe there has been at least some of that happening in Philadelphia, with developers putting in car sharing spots.
Some people need their cars, and plenty of other people just like them, but for lots of city dwellers a car is really only an occasional need, and car sharing programs provide for that.
